To do: As most of everything in this main page is wrong and/or too dated to be accurate at this time, it should be rewritten and have proper image rips.

Unused Images#

To do: Apparently there's more.

Old Corki Splash Art#

\deploy\assets\images\champions\Corky_Splash_0.jpg

For some reason his name is misspelled as "Corky".

"Web" Images#

Present in \deploy\assets\images\champions\ are two images that end in "_Web_0.jpg": Shen_Web_0.jpg and Vladimir_Web_0.jpg. Their purpose is unknown.

Abilities#

Present in deploy\assets\images\abilities are some unused icons for unused abilities. They are unlike other icons as they have multiple sizes within the image.

Unused Champion Ability Icons#

Tabu#

Tabu is a champion which was in development during the game's beta but was scrapped. Visual and gameplay similarities seem to indicate he might have been reworked into who is now Swain. His ability icons still remain in game files. Tabu is referred to as "48th Slave" in game's files, it is unknown why.

Averdrian#

Averdrian is an unreleased champion. He was cancelled because his concept didn't fit League of Legends' theme.

Blind Monk#

Blind Monk is actually Lee Sin. He was one of the first 6 champions ever designed. However, Riot met some difficulties and Blind Monk was officially cancelled. Eventually, due to community demand, he was fully redesigned and released in April 2011. His original ability icons still remain in the game's files.

Well Soterios#

Well is a cancelled Water-Wizard-like champion. It is believed he was later redesigned into Nami. His ability icons still remain in the game's files.

Gavid, the Plant King#

Gavid is a cancelled champion.The reasoning for Gavid's cancellation was that he didn't fit with the game's artistic theme. He was later redesigned into Zyra. His ability icons still remain in the game's files.

Regional Differences#

To do: Get comparison rips.

A number of changes were made in the Chinese version due to various reasons:

• Splash arts and profile icons are different with the latter using "chibi" versions of the champions.
• Karthus's face was removed due to skulls being forbidden in media.
• Free champion rotations are different.
